    Cucumber Soup

    Prep Time: 10 minutes
    Cook Time: 0 minutes
    Servings: 4
    To chill soup quickly, fill a large bowl or a sink with ice water. Pour the pureed soup into a smaller bowl and nest in the ice. Stir the soup occasionally to hasten the cooling.


    Ingredients:


    • 3 cucumbers, peeled
    • 1 1/2 cups plain yogurt
    • 2 Tbs. chopped fresh mint
    • 1 garlic clove, minced
    • 1/2 yellow onion, coarsely chopped
    • 1 large slice white country bread, crust removed, bread cubed
    • 1/2 cup chicken broth
    • Salt and freshly ground white pepper, to taste

    Directions:

    Prepare the cucumbers
    Cut each cucumber in half lengthwise. Using a teaspoon, scoop out and discard the seeds. Roughly chop 2 1/2 of the cucumbers. Finely chop the remaining cucumber half and reserve for garnish.

    Puree the soup
    In a food processor or blender, combine the roughly chopped cucumbers, the yogurt, 1 Tbs. of the mint, the garlic, onion, bread and broth. Process to a smooth puree. Season with salt and white pepper.

    Garnish the soup
    Serve immediately or, for a chilled soup, transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for 2 to 8 hours.

    Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with the reserved cucumber and remaining 1 Tbs. mint and serve. Serves 4.
